Colour suggestions for Hardbound Copies?

A

Hello everyone!

I'm just waiting on an approval to go ahead and insert my minor corrections into my thesis to be printed as a corrected copy (yay!) and then BAM, Dr Awsoci :)

There are no specific requirements as to what colour my thesis has to be, so I actually have plenty of options with the place I'm getting them bound at. I think that actually makes it harder, rather than easier!

I have no idea what colour! My one thesis advisor suggested to not go white or black (I liked the idea of a white...) or purple had my thesis been about new age religion (which it's not).

My thesis is on Australian identity and masculinity. Any suggestions for colour?

I had no idea you could get all these colour options and just sort of assumed thesis binding was a standard black! I'd be like you and feel spoiled for choice, and would probably just go for something I liked (I kind of like the copper). Whatever you go for, enjoy this time, Dr Awsoci!

I'd like to use a bright colour for my binding, but I'm stuck with bilious green or unmentionable brown!

The expectation will be that the University copies for the library and supervisors will be black and gold leaf print.

However, your own copy can be any colour you like.

However, red and white stripes and the below badge was not possible for the cover of my hard bound copy (Mackem -> Sunderland -> please feel free to take the p*ss). :-)

Thanks guys!

Actually there is no university expectation for the supervisor/library copies. Hence the frustration of not knowing what colour to go with, though I'm leaning towards a dark red with gold for the main copies, and a pearl white with black and gold for mine :)

We don't have a logo to go on our cover...I would love a logo!
